The paper investigates possibility of equilibrium solid-body rotation of a vortex bundle diverging at some height from a cylinder axis and terminating on a lateral wall of a container. Such a bundle arises when vorticity expands up from a…
We derive the proper form of Virial theorem for a system of rotating self-gravitating Brownian particles. We show that, in the two-dimensional case, it takes a very simple form that can be used to obtain general results about the dynamics…
We prove a definitive theorem on the asymptotic stability of point vortex solutions to the full Euler equation in 2 dimensions. More precisely, we show that a small, Gevrey smooth, and compactly supported perturbation of a point vortex…
We show that the boundary of a rotating vortex patch (or V-state, in the terminology of Deem and Zabusky) is of class C^infinity provided the patch is close enough to the bifurcation circle in the Lipschitz norm. The rotating patch is…
We consider a two-dimensional, two-layer, incompressible, steady flow, with vorticity which is constant in each layer, in an infinite channel with rigid walls. The velocity is continuous across the interface, there is no surface tension or…
We consider massive vortices in binary condensates, where the immiscibility condition entails the trapping of the minority component in the vortex cores of the majority component. We study such vortices by means of a 2D point-like model,…
